“Capella is at an inflection point,” Roland Fasel, the firm’s new president, tells Fortune. “We’ve gained recognition in the last few years and that gives us the confidence to go forward.”
The group’s first European hotel, based in a 12th century compound near Florence’s Duomo cathedral, will open in late 2027. Capella will also debut in the Middle East that same year with a property in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia; there are at least ten other hotels in its pipeline.
